Spring Style: Polo ad Rugby Shirts
March 5th, 2008 | Published in Uncategorized
It is the first week in March and it was 60 degrees in D.C. on Monday. Spring is upon us, which means its time to evaluate your spring wardrobe.
The black professional’s spring/summer wardrobe must include a decent of selection of Polo and Rugby shirts for those occasions where a t-shirt just won’t get it done. Men’s Flair has a primer on Polo and Rugby shirts including some interesting suggestions on creative ways to wear these classic staples.
Another unconventional look for the polo shirt is, come summer time, wearing it with a slim tie. Though this sounds like a mismatch of styles, it can come off very well although it is important that the polo shirt is a slim-fitting shirt and that the tie is also plain and very slim – fat kipper ties look absurd with polos. Worn correctly with some short tailored shorts and some sleek loafers (no socks of course) and an unbuttoned cardigan, it looks alternative, original and yet instantly classic.
If you can pull it off, more power to you.
